Chapter 232: Wu Tianyuan
"Interesting. I don’t know what kind of Demon Beast you are, but for a mere Tier Two Demon Beast to have such combat power... So be it. You’ll follow me from now on." The youth smiled as he spoke, having just forced Little Ape back with a palm strike.
The youth was both curious about and fond of Little Ape. The palm-sized creature could actually control its own size, which had startled him at first.
Furthermore, Little Ape’s combat power was formidable. Even he had only managed to force it back after a hundred moves. It was clear that Little Ape’s combat power was on par with the weakest of the ten geniuses on the Yanhuang List, or at least very close.
Just as the youth was about to claim Little Ape for himself, an indifferent voice drifted over. "They say a gentleman does not take what another cherishes. Are you, my friend, planning to seize it by force?"
As the voice spoke, Lin Yun arrived beside Little Ape, mounted on the back of a Black-striped Tiger.
At the sight, the youth merely glanced at Lin Yun. He paid no mind to someone at the Third Layer of the Qi Sea Realm. He was far more wary of the Black-striped Tiger that Lin Yun was riding.
The Black-striped Tiger was a Tier Three Demon Beast, and even the youth felt immense pressure from it. While he was in no danger of being killed by the tiger, killing it himself would be no easy feat either.
Lin Yun could tell from the youth’s expression that he wasn’t being taken seriously. After a moment, a smirk touched the youth’s lips as he spoke to Lin Yun. "I’m not the one doing the stealing here, am I? From the looks of it, you must be with this Monk and Daoist. In that case, just hand over this Little Demon Beast as compensation, and I’ll pretend this whole thing never happened."
After a brief moment of consideration, the youth made up his mind. Little Ape was simply too mysterious and powerful. He decided he had to have it, even if it meant fighting the Black-striped Tiger.
Although the Black-striped Tiger was a Tier Three Demon Beast, the youth possessed a Forbidden Artifact forged by a Primordial Ocean Realm expert. Combined with his own combat power, he wasn’t particularly afraid of the tiger.
